Though Bionic Commando: Rearmed will be coming to the PlayStation Network, Xbox Live Arcade, and the PC, producer Ben Judd explained that some features will be exclusive to the PlayStation 3 version. On the PlayStation Blog, Judd revealed two of these secrets, and also teased another.

The PSN version will support the Dual Shock 3 controller. But, in an even more exciting announcement, the game will also support remote play, allowing gamers to play Rearmed on their PSPs as well. "There is one point where we had to "creatively" reprogram the controls to give players the illusion of using 2 sticks (you'll know when you see it)," Judd explained. "The classic 2D side-scrolling graphics really fit with the PSP and just make the PSN version all the more cooler."

He then went on to explain that there will be at least one more unique feature, though we don't yet know what it is. "Of course there is one more very cool surprise for those of you who purchase the PSN version," he added. "But that is another story for another time."

It's always great to see a developer playing to a system's strengths, instead of simply porting a game from one platform to another. Hopefully the other two versions of the game will have some unique features as well.

Bionic Commando: Rearmed is set to hit the PSN, PC, and XBLA later this month. Frank and Ben, or Franks and Beans as I call them, will likely get some hands-on time with the game at their E3 Capcom meeting, so we're looking forward to their impressions.
